Summary
Two guys try to stay alive during a zombie apocalypse while driving around in a beat-up RV named El Presidio.
I had started to accept the inevitability of my death when I heard a voice yell, "EAT SHIT!" right before the zombie's head was removed with a blow from what looked like a shovel with nails in it. I pushed the limp body off of me and was genuinely surprised to find I had not pissed my pants. I wiped my face and checked my sleeves to see if any of the zombie sludge had gotten on me; I was mostly clean. I stared past my shaky fingers up at my savior. Well, the shovel was most specifically my savior, but the guy holding it was pretty important, too.

- pinboard.in: "Gaga, the last virgin alive, and Mercury, a crazy dude with a car he calls El Presidio, head north in hope of finding other humans. I always like zombie fics. I have a very soft spot for zombie fics. And Domashita Romero always writes good zombie fics. So! Zombie fic."
